Chapter on Whose Testimony Must Be Rejected and Whose Testimony Must Be Accepted
وَ سَأَلَ عَبْدُ اَللَّهِ بْنُ اَلْحَكَمِ أَبَا عَبْدِ اَللَّهِ عَلَيْهِ اَلسَّلاَمُ: عَنِ اِمْرَأَةٍ شَهِدَتْ عَلَى رَجُلٍ أَنَّهُ دَفَعَ صَبِيّاً فِي بِئْرٍ فَمَاتَ قَالَ "عَلَى اَلرَّجُلِ رُبُعُ دِيَةِ اَلصَّبِيِّ بِشَهَادَةِ اَلْمَرْأَةِ".
And Abdullah bin Al-Hakam asked Abu Abdullah عليه السلام, about a woman who testified against a man that he had pushed a boy into a well, resulting in his death. Imam عليه السلام said: "The man is liable for one-fourth of the boy's blood money based on the testimony of the woman."
